Inside, Where No One Sees

"With admiration for the greatness of what

you are building when no one sees."

Nicole Johnson

As we travel, we see individuals and know absolutely nothing about them.  We might judge them by outward appearances without picking up on personal brilliance.  The mind is a magnificent place, but we simply do not know what is inside the minds of others. ...  

Life experience can cover us with layers of emotional or physical or sexual damage.  These hidden episodes become the drive behind our passion or a stumbling block.  We can use our fire to create positive inner experiences or become mesmerized by the flame and paralyzed by the pain.

To build our chambers within, we need compassion, respect, and courage.  As individuals we create an inner world that may never be seen, but offers the individual safe space.  We will have an inner castle that no one may ever see, but it was created for you, not me.
